The surviving Sessional records of the Legislative Council include draft and fair copies of Minutes, Bills and amendments, and committee reports thereon, Addresses and Returns or Replies to Addresses, Resolutions and Motions, reports of Committees investigating contested elections and special questions, and Petitions submitted to the House, 1841-1866, although very little antedates February 1854. The printed Journals and Sessional Papers include the text for most of these records, except the petitions. A number of reports and returns excluded from the printed Sessional Papers have been identified as surviving here.

The petitions were filed in a numeric sequence for each Session. Each petition was folded into an envelope, on which the Clerk endorsed the number assigned to it, a title and the dates of tabling and reading. Adverse storage conditions have stained the envelopes and created gaps in the numeric sequences.

The original arrangement of the records is being reconstructed where possible. Petitions, bills and other classes of documents were numbered in sequences which reflect their presentation in the House, and which permit a degree of access to them from references in the Journals.
